Chapter 9

Percy Pov

Raspberry. She smelled like raspberry. I could taste the saltiness from the salmon she had eaten earlier. But it didn’t matter right now, what mattered was that I had her where I wanted.

“Sign the papers okay?” I repeated looking her in the eye waiting for a response. All she did was nod while swallowing, good. My lips spread in a small smile but instead of pulling away I leaned forward to where her ear was and with a soft tug my teeth grabbed the bare skin.

My grip on her arms slackened and she held on to my shoulders like the only support she had. Her fingers spread across the bulk of my shoulders and her soft palms are soothing with just a simple innocent touch.

“Percy-“ she whispered, her voice calm and on the verge of breaking. My eyes moved to her face where I met her eyes, she clamped them shut for a while, trying to hold herself together.

“Yes?” I answered waiting for her.

“Get the fuck away from me.” It was low yet firm and true. With a low chuckle my ha

    Chapter TenEden PovHis penthouse was massive, the interior was dark and gloomy, no surprise there. He walked in and the lights came on, it was a mix of black and dark blue with some Grey. The space was calm and lonely.“You stay here alone?” I asked as I walked further taking in the environment.“You don’t see anyone else do you?” He answered walking further into the room. He walked towards the window which parted as he closed in. It was so unreal, after mom and dad separated, we stayed in a less fancy space which fit in our style.This was spectacular, he was a billionaire no wonder he could afford an exclusive space like this.“So what happens? I’m here now, legally tied to you. I’m tired and need to sleep-““You can take any of the rooms upstairs.” He interrupted me as he paced towards the counter to grab a drink. Ice in a stunt glass and from the looks of it, a whiskey.“You’re drinking?” I asked and he paused his fingers rolling over the tip of the glass.“After the chaotic day

My eyes peeked open slowly bringing the bedside table into view, I reached for my phone and turned off the alarm. It was six, I needed to get ready for my morning run. “Arg-” I cried as I dragged myself out of bed. Something was off as I stood in front of the mirror staring at my reflection. My hair was a mess and my face was not exactly pretty. My lips- My eyes widened in realization. Last night. Percy was here and we- we- “Please no.” I groaned and rushed out of my room. I had to be sure. Standing in the middle of the hallway I glanced from one door to another trying to figure out which was Percy’s room. A sound from behind the door at the end of the hallway caught my attention.“Bingo.” I mouthed to myself. Now that I was in front of the doors I knocked hard.“Percy!” I shouted in urgency. No response and I tried again. “Percy-

    Chapter 12Percy povI didn’t hear from Eden for the rest of the day, even with the tabs I’ve kept on her mothers company I’ve received no new report from my informant. Was she bluffing about the company? Or is she actually doing something concerning it. I tapped my pen on the table in a horrid rhythm.“If you’re not interested in what I have to say you should just say so.” Zachary, my best friend stated playing with the golden strand of his hair.“Sorry man, I just have a lot on my mind.” I answered in all sincerity rubbing my forehead. “Does this have anything to do with the hot woman you were seen with last night?” he beamed leaning forward with his eyes focused on me. “How-” I inquired.“You’re not a poor person Pierce. People with cameras are interested in you, they won’t keep shut once they find something juicy.” Zachary,, my best friend said brushing his light brown hair back. He was right, I was a billionaire my life wasn’t so private especially to desperate photographers.“

    Chapter 13Eden povWe were both sitting in fathers office, my legs were crossed over each other and my hands across my chest in defiance. Percy on the other hand glared at me, he was mad for what I did. Serves him right.“Eden!” My father called abruptly and I turned to him. He was furious, even with his straight face I could tell he was mad at me too.“What in the world were you thinking?” he asked. “You should’ve talked to him.”“I should’ve talked? He was being a jackass, telling me I was going and I quote –” I air quoted. “Overboard. If you ask me that’s enough talking to me. If he’s not going to take my words seriously then maybe I should give him reasons why he shouldn’t mess with me.” “You didn’t have to break the glass of my car.” Percy fumed holding on to the edge of the chair tightly.“Glad I got your attention now.” I sneered unfolding my legs and leaned forward.“That’s enough, both of you. I didn’t call you here to hear you two bicker. I called you two here for the wedd

We’ve barely crossed paths and even when we did, I made sure not to allow any exchange.We were supposed to get to the studio at the same time in his car, so I left earlier by myself, I called Josh to come pick me up instead. When I got there, they were ready for me as so we prepared. “That’s how she broke off the bottle and cried for the rest of the day.” The woman working on my hair narrated. She was talking about her niece and I really didn’t mind listening to her, it managed to take my mind away from the fact that I’ll be standing really close to Percy. “So, where’s your fiancee? I noticed you came in here alone, didn’t you two come together?” I met her eyes through the mirror. “Uh-” These people didn’t know that we were married already. “Well he is on his way.”The door to the dressing room was opened and a younger girl with dark red hair pe

    Chapter 15Percy PovThe moment Eden walked out from the dressing room in the white dress I didn’t expect to be disturbed, she had been ignoring me for the past couple of days and I’ve stayed on my own lane not wanting to interact with her in any way. Now that she was on the stage smiling at the camera as she had her pictures taken, it disturbed me. I watched her every move, unable to look away and she caught me several times staring but wouldn’t react at any point. “…..you need to show how much you love Miss. Maverick.” The words drummed in my ears. I held my glare as I stared at Lyon. Didn’t the man know I didn’t love her and wasn’t in the least that attracted to her. Then her eyes fell on me, challenging me to take up the dare and be the biggest actor in this place. Sure, I could act to be in love. It wasn’t the hardest thing to do. With long strides I covered up the distance between us, her chest and mine were few meters apart and I stared at her face. Her olive green eyes we

Out? What did he mean by out? “I’ll handle it.” He assured me.“Good, I don’t need to worry about crazy people coming here unannounced.” I added walking to my room.“Wait- where did you find him when you got here?” “He was standing in the middle of the living room like a creep.” I answered. “No offense.” He ignored my crude comment about his step brother.“Did he say anything to you?” He inquired looking up at me. “What was his reaction when he saw you?”“Why would I take note of that?-“ the glare he gaze me shit me up.“Help me out here Eden, I don’t want to fight with you.” He sighed.“Fine-“ I searched through.

My eyes following as her throat bobbed as she swallowed, they stayed on her lips which were now stained. “My eyes are up here.” “I’m aware, I like he view from here.” I answered with a teasing smile, she carried her plate to the sink to wash them. As if pulled by magnet, I followed her and placed the plates in the sink.“Let me-” I offered gently displacing her from the sink. While I turned on the tap I could feel her eyes on me, she wasn’t expecting me to offer to wash. “Why are you being nice?” she finally asked. I rinsed the plate taking my time to answer her question. “Why?” I repeated.“Stop beating around the bush Percy,” Maybe I was trying to get her mind off the fact the Graham made a disturbing appearance today.“Is this about Graham?” she hit the bullseye without trying to hard, she is s

My eyes landed on the man sleeping in my bed, his bare chest was on display for me to see and his hands crossed over his face, blocking his eyes. My eyes trailed further down to where the Duvet stopped which was around his hips. He moved and my gaze reached up his face. “Audrey? Are you there?” Eden said through the phone and I blinked. “Yeah, i am.” I answered lowly while rubbing my neck, my fingers crossed one of the bruise on my neck. It was a love mark from Zach from last night. “So what do you say?” she asked and i moved closer to Zach who was still asleep, the bed dipped from under me as i sat on the bed. “You should go for it, i’m sure it would drive him crazy.” I giggled. I placed my hands on Zach chest and traced on the toned mucles of his chest. He stirred but doesn’t open his eyes. “Thanks Audrey- you’re a life saver.” She sighed in r

Three daya back, Audrey suggested that we went out on vacation and today we were on our way to mauritius to spend the next two weeks. “Are you guys done?” Audrey strutted out in her short summer dress. She had her hair up in a neat bun. They were all making an effort with the dress and there was me. My black swweat pants sat on waist and my body hug crop top held the upper part of my body, revealing my toned muscles. I grabbed a scrunchy from the table and packed my hair in a messy bun and applied gloss afterwards. “Its how you make no effort yet still look as hot as a model from a cover magazine.” Maggie said as she grabbed her bag.

My hands held unto his shoulders for support as we moved further into the room. The lights flooded slowly as i kicked off my shoes and stood on my tiptoes to keep myself from falling out of the kiss. His lips held mine as the urgency to have me where he wanted. My hands fiddled with his jacket but i managed to peel if of his shoulders, his fingers around my waist detached as he helped me get rid of the material andd discard it to the side. His hands brushed against my hips and down to my thighs where he squeezed on the skin through the material of my dress. A soft moan escaped my lips and my eyes closed shut at the pleasure that caused through from his lips. He pulled away and stared at me for a moment, his fingers brushed a strand of hair away from my face to behind my ears. “You’re as red as a tomato.” he teased. “It’s all your fault, my body always reacts

Audrey and Maggie with a bouquet of flowers walked to me with bright smiles. “Audrey? Maggie? What's going on? What’s all this for?” “It's been three months since you started out with rebuilding your mother’s business-” Audrey started. “And you’ve done a great job with it that you're growing tremendously. As of yesterday We hit three times the quarterly report projection.” Cole said from behind me with a bottle of wine in his hands. “This is congratulations to you Eden, you’ve worked so hard amidst everything that was going on, you did it.” Coel said and the group cheered.

She sighed and smacked her lips together. “Ready as I'll ever be,” she replied and reached for his hands which he held. He planted a soft kiss on the back of her hands and squeezed gently.

I pulled my hands but they were restricted by the hard duct tape which was rounded around my upper body, my wrists were bound together by a thick rope.“How did you get me here?” I asked whilst struggling. Graham wouldn’t like me if I got free.“It doesn’t matter now brother, what you should be more worried about is yourself and her-“ he nudged to his right. With a grin on my face I turned in his direction and my eyes widened. Eden. She was hunched over, tied to the chair and unconscious. My heart thumped in my chest and anger cursed through my veins.“What did you do to her?!” I yelled at Graham who only laughed out loud and stared at me like I’ve lost my mind. “Oh, nothing much. I just gave her some sedative to get her not to scream.” He answered brushing some of his long hair backwards. “You sick bastard! I swear if you laid a single-““I don’t think you are in any po

Percy was back home alone and I didn’t like it, even after he assured me that he was going to be fine I just wanted to be with him. I pushed up to Audrey’s apartment which was unlocked, I sighed in relief when I pushed the door opened. “Audrey- I’m back!” I yelled and walked into her apartment with the bag tucked in my hands. There was no answer, maybe she was up in the bathroom? I placed the bag on the counter and turned to leave when I noticed a paper on the counter, it looked like a letter. It wasn’t any of my business so i ignored it. “Audrey! I’m leaving-“ “Eden?” My head snapped towards Zach who was standing in his sweats with no shirt on and the way his hair frizzled and bare chest glistened in sweat, I couldn’t help but raise my brow at him. “Oh Zach- you’re here.” I said. “Where’s Audrey?”
